No synopsis in Educational Film Guides.
Ken Smith reports: A patronizing narrator snickers while we see footage of "semi-barbarous" Guatemalans fishing, weaving, hauling clay pots on giant backpacks ("human pack animals" and "two-legged mules," the narrator chuckles), and engaging in "pagan" dances. The menace, by the way, is Agua, the volcano. Good (if gritty) footage of villagers running in terror while walls collapse around them.
